[xwiki-devs] Notion of Active committers
Hi guys, I've taken the liberty to refine the notion of active committer on http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Committership Basically the idea is that active means having at least 1 commit in a period of 1 year (rolling period). We had discussed this and it was hinted in the text I rewrote. Just wanted to make sure we all agree about it. This notion can be useful on: * the hall of fame page * the new download page where companies can list their number of active committers Thanks -Vincent

Sounds fair to me. One question: how do you decide whether I'm still active (given my status is a bit special)? Guillaume

You were voted in the role of "open source product manager", see http://xwiki.markmail.org/thread/ri6acibyjkjenr76 Since you no longer have that role, it's a bit of a grey area. You tell us how you want to be considered. Thanks -Vincent

Is that so? I see that my role is defined as: "* Monitoring the lists for users requests/needs * Talking to people who implement XWiki out there in the wild, in companies and see what their needs are * Monitoring the enterprise wiki landscape for new features we should have * Comparing XWiki with other wiki engines out there Guillaume should provide us devs with visibility on the most wanted features and help us prepare our roadmaps." I'm still actively doing the first 3 so I'm not sure how/when this stopped being my role. Guillaume

Indeed. Maybe it would be better to switch me to a "retired" / "emeritus" status or something similar then? Guillaume Thanks

Done, see http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/HallOfFame Thanks -Vincent PS: For full transparency, I discussed with Guillaume offline about this and we agreed that he should be Emeritus.

I do not really disagree, but I do not remember that discussion, any pointer ? I thought initially that active committers where active until they are emeritus, and the switch is done by proposal and discussion with the concerned committer. I probably repeat myself, but there is many ways to contributes, other than purely doing a commit. Even if I do not want to plead for myself in particular here, my recent works on xwiki-store with Caleb is a good example, no commit from me, but surely a real participation in Caleb's commits. Moreover, as you have said before, actively participating is not always easy, in particular in these days, and I try to still actively participate, while focusing on points that I know well or matters most for us since I have no time for more currently. I really wish to be able to do more. Denis Just wanted to make sure we all agree about it.

We're talking about Committers here, not contribution. You don't need to be committer to participate and contribute. Thanks -Vincent
